And CNN's slant towards a candidate doesn't have anything to do with a scientific poll.

Fox doesn't make up their poll numbers. Not even Breitbart which is about as close to as a US RT as you can get makes up their poll numbers.

Come on. Hannity even campaigns for Trump. CNN has had all kinds of critical news for Clinton and tough questions. Just because they're harder on one Candidate than another, doesn't mean it is unfair. Just means one candidate has a lot more to answer for

Even if you think CNN sucks at their job, you cannot hold that Donald Trump would be good at the one he's applying for.

Trump was not wearing a wedding ring? Does he normally?

They did not shake hands in the beginning, but perhaps the last question lessened the tension, and they did shake hands at the end.

Probably the debate will prove very helpful for Clinton. Plenty of sound bites to use in ads, and Trump did well enough not to get fired, which is ultimately good for her.

Are you kidding? CNN attracts a specific audience the poll results are going to reflect that. Same with Fox News.

So? That's a completely different issue why are you trying to defect at all? Do we really need to say 1,000,000 different ways that Trump is a buffoon? Everyone knows that only someone with fear and insecurity would need to hammer this point over and over again.

Ya, and everyone knows science is liberal and always supports Democrats. Just another left wing special interest.

Trumps daughter Tiffany pulled away from him when he went in for a kiss. Awkward.

My grandmother with Late stage Alzheimer's has had CNN on in perpetuity since the 90s.

She thinks Trump sounds too much like her to be President.

Of course I'm fearful of Donald Trump having access to ICBMs. I read.

It's not an online poll of people who clicked on their site. That's what all the Trump supporters who flooded twitter with jpgs of Trump's victory in the polls did; self selecting polls or polls where people could spam votes for their choice.

This wasn't that, it was a scientific poll. The other scientific poll I posted earlier also showed Clinton winning.

Then you've been living in a cave. So here's the Fox News poll, I guess by the logic presented earlier Trump won by a landslide.

Clinton did not win this debate she got hammered just like Trump lost badly last debate. But it doesn't matter either way Hillary is going to beat Trump big on election day which is why I don't understand why there is so much consternation about the whole thing.

Not trying to sound condescending, but do you understand the difference between a scientific poll and a web poll?

Also amusing that Pro-Trump CNN employs what amounts to a Trump surrogate.
